AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has seen his attack struggle in recent weeks and he needs four of his reliable goal scorers to start firing, a report claims.
In the last six games across league and cup Milan have scored just four goals and the goal crisis seems to have gripped the forwards in particular, because the last two Rossoneri scorers were Kalulu and Bennacer.
According to this morning’s edition of La Repubblica (via MilanNews), Milan are missing the goals of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Franck Kessie and Ante Rebic a lot at the moment, who last year were the top scorers of the team in Serie A with 15, 13 and 11 respectively.
This season they are currently on 8, 5 and 2 goals respectively which shows they have declined from a production point of view. Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leao each have double figures across all competitions, but they too have found goals tough to come by in recent weeks.
Ibra broken Kessie leaving and Rebic needs to find fitness.
Plus Zlatan (& Giroud) are seriously lacking in service. Provide a decent scoring chance and they will score, Fail to provide and none will score. Those guys can’t create goals out of nowhere (anymore).
Small correction: Rebic could. At least he did a a couple of months ago in the 2-2 draw. But he needs minutes on the field to get back into (match) shape.
